What is FOAMfrat?

Modified on Tue, 11 Apr 2023 at 01:47 PM

Welcome to Foamfrat.


Foamfrat stands for:


Free 

Open 

Access 

Medical education 

For 

Resuscitation 

And 

Training. 


With medicine evolving on a daily basis, it is important that providers stay up-to-date. With this mindset, free open access medical education (FOAMed) was born. The FOAMfrat team is made up of clinicians from around the world who strive to cut down the knowledge-translation window by utilizing creative and engaging content. 


If the "F" stands for free, why are you selling a product?


FOAMfrat started off and is still a free blog and podcast for pre-hospital clinicians. We found providers enjoyed the FOAMfrat style of content delivery, and listening to podcasts on their daily commute became routine. What if clinicians could get credit for the content they chose to listen to?  It is with this framing that we built our fully accredited EMS Library. The cost of the refresher helps FOAMfrat support the maintenance of our learning management system, assure proper accreditation, and routinely updating content.
